An uplink signal sending and receiving method includes that a first communication apparatus obtains a first timing advance (TA) change rate, and sends an uplink signal in a plurality of first time periods. There is a first time interval between the plurality of first time periods to compensate for a time synchronization drift. A length of the first time interval and a location of the first time interval between the plurality of first time periods are determined based on the first TA change rate, and the first TA change rate is a TA change rate in a communication process of the first communication apparatus.

Uplink signal sending and receiving method, and apparatus

A terminal determines a first frequency for accessing the network device Then, the terminal determines at least one second frequency based on the first frequency, where any second frequency is different from the first frequency, and at least two second frequencies are also different. The terminal selects at least two different second frequencies from the first frequency and the at least one second frequency. The terminal separately receives, in a time unit in a period by using the at least two different frequencies, an SSB from the network device. The terminal accesses the network device based on received one or more different SSBs.

Communication method and apparatus

This application discloses a random access preamble configuration method applicable to a satellite network and a communication apparatus. In the method, a random access preamble location offset and duration of a PRACH occasion can be flexibly configured based on features of a satellite system. The method includes: A receiving apparatus receives first indication information, where the first indication information includes indication information used to identify the random access preamble location offset at the physical random access channel PRACH occasion. The receiving apparatus transmits a random preamble based on the first indication information, where the random preamble includes a sequence part and a guard time. Because a communication distance is relatively long and a transmission delay difference between users is relatively large in a satellite communication system, time domain resources occupied by the PRACH occasion can be minimized by using this method.

The present disclosure relates to access methods and apparatuses. In one example method, a terminal device determines, based on whether a first frequency offset parameter is in a frequency offset parameter range, whether to access a first cell. If the first frequency offset parameter is in the frequency offset parameter range, a current location of the terminal device is not at an edge of the cell. Otherwise, the current location of the terminal device may be at the edge of the cell.

One example including a network device obtains target information that includes a transmission delay difference corresponding to a target beam or a target cell; determines a first preamble format based on the transmission delay difference, and then determines first configuration information used to indicate the first preamble format and a first set of random access occasions included in a random access period, where an interval between random access times included in the first set of random access occasions is greater than or equal to a preamble length corresponding to the first preamble format; and generates a corresponding first configuration index based on the first configuration information. The preamble formats required for different beams or cells can be determined based on transmission delay differences corresponding to the different beams or cells, and then configuration information of a random access occasion is further determined.

In one example method, a terminal device determines, based on a target sub-coverage area to which the terminal device belongs in a preset coverage area of a network device, target random access preamble format information corresponding to the target sub-coverage area. Then, the terminal device sends, to the network device on a target time-frequency resource indicated by target random access preamble time-frequency resource information corresponding to the target random access preamble format information, a random access preamble corresponding to the target random access preamble format information.

A communication device receives the first random access preamble in the random access request sent by the terminal apparatus, and then, determines, based on the association relationship, the target beam accessed by the terminal apparatus. The first random access preamble is determined based on the cyclic shift and/or the order of symbols.

The CP is used to carry first data. The first data is data in the OFDM symbol.

Signal transmission method based on satellite communication and device

A preparation method for a nanopore starch-based adsorbent. The method mainly comprises: constructing a large number of lamellar crystals on surfaces of starch granules, and inducing the formation of a nano-scale pore channel structure by means of the lamellar crystals. A large number of control tests have proved that the flaky crystals have direct influence on the formation of the nano-scale pore channel structure. The construction of a pore channel structure in a starch matrix material greatly increases the specific surface area, and improves the adsorption properties. In addition, the method is beneficial to the introduction of functional particles (magnetic particles), and avoids the problem of pore channel blockage due to first forming pores and then introducing functional particles.
